But.. hey, have any reccommendations from your own country of things we might not know???

Isn't Neil Young Canadian? Definitely give Nick Drake a try, from the UK side, if you've not come across him yet.

The OP mentioned being from a non-English speaking area. Nothing in my post infers I thought Neil Young was born in the US. We here do tend to hear a good deal from the UK, Canada, etc. .. but not other countries.

Technically he's Canadian. But he's lived in the U.S. since 1966, some three-quarters of his life, does 90% of his recording in the U.S., owns land in California and somewhere in the Midwest as well, so at this point keeping his Canadian passport is just a conversation piece.

Another great album from the "Harvest" era is "Comes a Time"... I just bought "Psychodelic" /Neil Young & Crazy Horse and on the first listen was a bit disappointed. It will likely grow on me in time as I haven't had the chance to give the double cd a good listen, if you like his drawn out long jams this new release is probably for you. I also like his "Hawks & Doves" and "Everybody's Rockin' albums.

In a similar time to early Neil Young is my two favorite Grateful Dead albums,American Beauty and Workingman's Dead.

Arlo Guthrie is always a good show worth going out of the way to attend. Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits are both in leagues of their own.

fyi... if you like listening to a broad range of musicthere's a broad spectrum of sounds here.
